Title: Queensland's vulnerability to rising oil prices - taskforce report
Type: Books, Reports & Plans
Status: Active
Abstract
The report concludes that the overwhelming evidence is that world oil production will peak within the next 10 years, and recommends that a prudent risk mitigation approach requires a mix of initiatives such as reduction in consumption of liquid fossil fuels, encouraging the development and use of alternative fuels, technologies and strategies, and preparation for demographic and regional changes, as Queenslanders change travel, work and living habits in response to rising fuel prices.

There is an active movement in Australia to confront and prepare for a future with less and more expensive oil. The above link connects to the full Queensland's report detailing the range of issues that must be faced and the options for dealing with them. The graphs are especially good. Hopefully, the U.S. will follow suit.
